Does it mean you are damaged if were just diagnosed with Syndrome?

It's important to remember that a diagnosis of Tourette Syndrome does not mean that you are damaged or defective in any way. Tourette Syndrome is a neurological condition that affects the brain and nervous system, causing tics. Tics are involuntary movements or sounds that can range in severity from mild to severe.

People with Tourette Syndrome are just as capable and intelligent as anyone else. They may experience some challenges related to their tics, such as social anxiety or difficulty concentrating in school or at work. However, with proper support and treatment, most people with Tourette Syndrome are able to live full and productive lives.

It's important to focus on the strengths and abilities of people with Tourette Syndrome, rather than viewing them as damaged or defective. With understanding and support, people with Tourette Syndrome can achieve their full potential and live happy, fulfilling lives.
